Former head of fintech Kontist becomes manager at Deutsche Bank

Sibylle Strack, former co-chief executive at Kontist, is now in charge of the growth of Deutsche Bank's business customer division.

Since the beginning of the year, Sibylle Strack has been employed by Deutsche Bank. There she is "Chief Growth Officer" and looks after the business client segment Bizbanking. She is to further develop sales channels and ensure growth, quotes the Handelsblatt from an internal memo. Only last year, all business customer activities were bundled in the Bizbanking division.

Strack was co-chief executive of fintech Kontist until December. Then she announced her resignation in order to face "new challenges in my expert field of banking and payment" again in the future. The Berlin-based start-up takes care of business accounts for freelancers and self-employed people. Previously, she had worked at the Savings Banks Association and the management consultancy Accenture. Strack once did her training at Deutsche Bank in Düsseldorf.
